CHICAGO, IL - October 9, 2007 - YUKE'S Company of America, subsidiary of Japanese game publisher YUKE'S Company Limited , today announced NEVES for the Nintendo DS TM has gone gold and will be available for purchase in November.

Puzzles can be as simple as a sword or as complex as a battleship. But as varied as they may be, each puzzle always features the same seven wooden blocks.
